Chapter 1098
“What’s the deal with you bringing up Ms. Summers‘ ring out of nowhere? What are you trying to
imply?”
Rhoda was at her wits‘ end. Who in their right mind would be this aggressive over a woman they
had just met? “What’s my agenda? Can’t I just find her ring pretty?”
“Are you trying to make Makenna believe that Ms. Summers is some sugar baby? Do you think
we’re all idiots?”
The more Austin heard, the weirder he found this woman who popped out of nowhere. He gave
Rhoda a look, hoping she’d get Dorthy out of there ASAP. Rhoda wanted the same, but she’d
underestimated Dorthy’s obsession with Chloe.
“Dorthy, I mean well. You’ve told me about your family’s financial struggles, and how proud your
parents are of you working at The Watson Hotel. Have you thought about how they’d feel if they had
to bail you out, or worse, see you go to jail? If you’re biased against me, then I’ve got nothing more
to say.” Dorthy just red at her, eyes red and lips sealed.
Seeing Dorthy’s attitude soften, Rhoda let out a sigh of relief. Rupin’s voice came from behind,
“What’s going on?”
Upon hearing Rupin’s voice, Rhoda quickly went to him and held his arm. “Rupin, Ms. Summers…
seems to have some sort of rtionship with Mr. Austin. Makenna seems to have found out…”
Rupin turned his gaze to Chloe, Austin, and the chubby woman ready to charge at Chloe. He
furrowed his brows. “With Mr. Austin?”
“Mhm… Mr. Austin seems to have admitted it.”
Rupin frowned, “Good Lord!”
Had he known Chloe was this type of woman, he would’ve done something sooner. How could he
let this chubby middle–aged man get involved? Seeing the change in Rupin’s expression, Rhoda
felt a sense of triumph and rxed, leaning affectionately against Rupin. Then she turned to a
suddenly quiet Makenna. “Makenna, maybe you got it wrong. Ms. Summers is loaded. That ring on
her finger, maybe… she bought it herself. I don’t understand rich people’s thinking. Buying a ring for
herself is one thing, but wearing it on her ring finger… is she marrying herself?”
At this, Makenna looked at Chloe’s left hand again, her eyes widening “Bullshit! Marrying herself?
It’s obviously bought by a man! No matter what you say, she’s just a cunning woman, a cheap slut
who seduces men!”
Chloe stood there, calm andposed, watching the drama unfold before her eyes. Her gaze
finallynded on Rhoda.
The sharp look made Rhoda feel a bit uneasy. But she knew Rupin’s expectations of Chloe had
dropped significantly, and his obsession with her wasn’t as intense as before. This n could both
ruin Chloe’s reputation andpletely shatter Rupin’s trust in her. A win–win strategy
With this thought, Rhoda straightened her back, maintained her haughty demeanor, and added a
hint of malicious joy.
Chloe remained cool and indifferent. She turned her gaze to Makenna. “I’ve said it many times. If
you really want to argue with me, go check, just like Dorthy suggested! All hotels require real–name
registration. You can easily find out who your husband shared a room with. There’s also CCTV
footage! There are many ways to get to the truth!”
Makenna froze after hearing this, looking at Chloe’s calm demeanor. It seemed like she wasn’t
lying. She even proposed checking the information and the footage. Could it be….

Rhoda let go of Rupin’s hand, took a few steps forward, and stared at Chloe with aposed
smile.
“Ms. Summers, as a key manager of the hotel, you must know the unwritten rule against leaking
any guest’s privacy. Aren’t you afraid of breaking the rule? Mr. Watson didn’t hire you to ruin the
hotel’s image. Are you willing to pay the hefty penalties?”
A faint sneer flickered in Chloe’s eyes. She slowly walked towards Rhoda, and upon seeing
Rhoda’s slightly panicked eyes, she stopped a few steps away. “What if I ruin the hotel’s image? If I
dare to do it, I dare to face the consequences! What about the penalties? Do you think I can’t afford
them?”
Rhoda took a step back, “… Yes, you can afford it, someone will always pay for you!”
Chloe gave her a coldugh. Makenna seemed to be provoked by Rhoda too. “Little bitch! Trying to
get money from my husband? You must be dreaming!”
‘Makenna, there’s a limit. Don’t tell me you’ve been silent this whole time without figuring anything
out! Who called you? Don’t you have doubts about :his?”
Makenna was taken aback, ncing at Rhoda, who quickly averted her gaze to hide her panic and
fear.
Makenna pursed her lips, still ring at Chloe, “Stop trying to sow discord and change the topic.
You seem decent on the surface, but you’re the best at Jeceiving men! I’m not an idiot, no matter
who told me, you seducing my husband is wrong!”
Seeing Makenna’s determination, Rhoda chimed in, “Ms. Summers, I think we should prevent this
issue from escting… After all, you’re in charge here. If
were you, I’d prioritize the hotel’s reputation, regardless of my responsibility… Oh!”
All the while, Chloe had been smiling at Makenna, not even ncing at Rhoda. Suddenly, she
swung her hand and pped Rhoda across the face.
Rhoda was caught off guard, letting out a yelp as she was shoved to the side. She staggered,
almost tripping over, but managed to steady herself at the ast moment. Clutching her stinging
cheek, she turned her head, her eyes bloodshot as she red at Chloe.
Chloe’s eyes narrowed slightly, giving her a frosty stare.
You’re talking too much.”
